I set my classroom up back in 2003 with a setup that I still use today. I have one computer with a network box that allows three student computers to view only the specific items I place into the shared file folder of my computer. I use ExamView to…

Great lab set up, Man. I'm just know discovering Linux. In the process of converting my home PC from Windows XP to Ubuntu. If successful, I hope to implement the new OS into my classroom. Question, was it difficult to get the donated computers?

Shannon Take a look at Tom Barrett's blog He does lots of interesting things for elementary age classes. I really liked his Google math Maps series. Don't get overwhelmed, take one thing at a time and develop it.

I am interested to know what types of Web 2.0 tools were discussed? I just finished a paper about how important it is to include Web 2.0 into the classroom. I would love to learn what others have to say about this.
